%X El c芍ncer es un problema de salud p迆blica debido a su alta incidencia y mortalidad, su elevado costo social y econ車mico, y por la falta de estrategias intra e intersectoriales, que se evidencia en la falta de acceso a la informaci車n y a pruebas de tamizaje. Por todo esto, es necesario enfrentarlo integral y sostenidamente en el tiempo. Luego de un diagn車stico de recursos humanos y materiales a nivel nacional, y de haber observado la actitud de los decisores en salud, se decidi車 la creaci車n de la Coalici車n Multisectorial Per迆 contra el C芍ncer con la participaci車n del sector p迆blico y no p迆blico. Se desarroll車 un plan estrat谷gico, y luego un plan nacional para el fortalecimiento de la prevenci車n y control del c芍ncer. Como resultado, se ha fortalecido el trabajo intersectorial; la promoci車n de la salud orientada a la prevenci車n del c芍ncer mediante informaci車n, educaci車n y comunicaci車n, se mejor車 y acerc車 la oferta de servicios mediante la desconcentraci車n y descentralizaci車n de la atenci車n oncol車gica Cancer is a public health problem due to its high incidence and mortality, its high social and economic cost, and the lack of intra and intersectorial strategies resulting in failure to access information and screening tests. For this reason, it is necessary to address this problem with a comprehensive and sustainable approach. After performing a diagnosis of the human and material resources at the national level, and after having observed the attitude of healthcare decisors, the Multisector Coalition against Cancer was created with the participation of the public and nonpublic sector. A strategic plan was developed, followed by a national plan for strengthening cancer prevention and control. As a result, intersectorial work and health promotion oriented to cancer prevention through information, education and communication were strengthened. Service supply was improved and optimized through decentralization of oncological care
